Is it more hot air or will anything actually come of it?

Kevin McCarthy says he’ll start impeachment of AG Merrick Garland by July 6 over bombshell IRS whistleblower testimony that he interfered in criminal investigation into Hunter Biden

  • Hunter Biden sent a WhatsApp to Communist Party official Henry Zhao on July 30, 2017, threatening him to follow his ‘orders’ and saying his dad was with him
  • ‘And if it comes true what the IRS whistleblower is saying, we’re going to start impeachment inquiries on the attorney general,’ says McCarthy

House Speaker Kevin McCarthy says Republicans will begin an impeachment inquiry into Attorney General Merrick Garland by July 6 following bombshell IRS whistleblower testimony that the top Justice Department official interfered in the criminal investigation into Hunter Biden.

The Republicans plan to take this action following new allegations by IRS whistleblower Gary Shapley, a 14-year veteran of the agency, claiming that Hunter Biden has been given preferential treatment by investigators looking into his tax affairs and lying on a gun permit application.

Shapley pointed to a WhatsApp message sent on July 30, 2017, by Hunter to Chinese Communist Party official Henry Zhao, threatening him to follow his ‘orders’ and saying his dad was with him. Shapley alleges he raised concerns about the WhatsApp message to DOJ prosecutors, who rebuffed his concerns.

McCarthy said on Fox & Friends Monday that U.S. Attorney David Weiss – who led the investigation into Hunter and charged the president’s son last week for violating federal tax and gun laws after a 5-year probe – must appear before the House Judiciary Committee.

In addition, the speaker said that an impeachment inquiry into Garland will begin by July 6 if the IRS whistleblower claims check out.

We need to get to the facts, and that includes reconciling these clear disparities. U.S. Attorney David Weiss must provide answers to the House Judiciary Committee.

The president’s son was staying at the guest house of Biden’s Delaware home when he wrote to Communist Party official Henry Zhao on July 30, 2017, threatening him to follow his ‘orders’

‘By July 6, because of the allegations by the IRS, because of the whistleblower, and the DOJ – Garland – what he is saying and what David Weiss is saying privately are two different things,’ the speaker said.

‘And if it comes true what the IRS whistleblower is saying, we’re going to start impeachment inquiries on the attorney general,’ McCarthy pledged Monday on Fox & Friends.

He said ‘what’s interesting is the IRS whistleblower that has no political background, took copious notes, can tell you the date, can tell you the people in the meeting.’

McCarthy said the discrepancies between what U.S. Attorney Weiss has said versus what Attorney General Merrick Garland has said is the key issue at hand.

According to the whistleblower, ‘U.S. Attorney Weiss stated that he subsequently asked for special counsel authority from Main DOJ at that time and was denied that authority.’

However, Garland publicly defended himself Friday, saying that Weiss ‘was given complete authority to make all decisions on his own.’

‘I don’t know how it would be possible for anybody to block him from bringing a prosecution,’ Garland told reporters.

‘Some have chosen to attack the integrity of the Justice Department by claiming that we do not treat cases alike. This constitutes an attack on an institution that is essential to American democracy,’ Garland continued.

The speaker had alluded that the House might move forward on impeachment articles in a tweet over the weekend.

‘We need to get to the facts, and that includes reconciling these clear disparities. U.S. Attorney David Weiss must provide answers to the House Judiciary Committee,’ McCarthy said Sunday.

Garland is as crooked as they come. Thankfully he was not confirmed to SCOTUS; we dodged a bullet on that one. The orders not to prosecute Hunter had to have come from the top.

Watch out McCarthy.

Looks like Garland is about to charge you with insurrection by “attacking an institution that is essential to American democracy.”

Ask that wormy MF’er what he knows about that federal building he blew up to get all of his pet domestic terrorism laws passed.

I doubt it, another tactic. These corrupt people have more corrupt people which have more corrupt people to protect the corrupted people so we need to round all these people up and Excommunicado them all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is a vicious, never ending cycle of corruption. Even if they do something, do you really think it will be for us, NO. The left have corrupted plans to enact more corrupted plans. Smokescreens are to make us think they are helping us or protecting us or to make us believe they care or our make us believe they are actually doing something about anything!!!!!!!!!!!

When those that the People have ‘hired’ to uphold “The Law” will not do so, it becomes the Right and DUTY of the People to do so in their stead.
